Tabletop RPG Consent Checklist

The game you are about to participate in may include sensitive themes, such as violence and/or romance. It is important that everyone enters the game on the same page with the same expectations. Everyone's

comfort level is different and by getting a baseline of the players' collective comfort level, we can all maximize the fun. What is totally fine for the GM may be totally off-limits for you, even in a game that

explores terror and fear. This is exactly why it is so important to have an agreement with the GM and the group what is and what is not okay to include in-game.

Please be honest with your answers, and feel free to reach out to let the GM know if this may not be the

game for you.
